IDX VL-PD1 USB PD V-Mount Charging Plate
Current Stock:
The VL-PD1 is a dedicated USB Power Delivery (PD) V-Mount charging plate designed for professional broadcast, video production, and AV environments. Unlike traditional chargers with fixed charging channels, the VL-PD1 allows users to build a flexible, scalable charging system using multiple plates configured to suit their workspace and operational needs. When paired with a suitable 75W or greater USB PD power source, the VL-PD1 supports charging up to 4A and accepts USB Type-C input up to 100W. Built-in Bluetooth communication enables users to monitor each compatible IDX V-Lock battery via an app, including charge status, cell health, total cycles, serial number, and other battery information—making it an ideal solution for managing larger battery inventories. Flexible System Configuration Unlike conventional V-mount chargers with a fixed number of charging channels, the VL-PD1 can be combined with multiple units to create a charging setup that matches your requirements. This allows efficient use of available rack or equipment room space and supports scalable battery management. Rack-Mount or Wall-Mount Installation The VL-PD1 supports both rack-mounted and wall-mounted configurations, making it easy to optimize charging infrastructure for different installation environments and workflows. Fast and Intuitive Battery Handling Using the familiar V-mount attachment system, batteries can be mounted and removed quickly without repeatedly connecting and disconnecting USB cables. This streamlines operations when managing multiple batteries and helps keep charging areas organized. High-Speed Charging Support When paired with a USB PD power source capable of delivering 75 W or higher, the VL-PD1 supports charging at up to 4 A, reducing battery charging times. Actual charging performance depends on the output capacity of the connected USB PD charger. Clear Status Indication LED indicators positioned at both the top and bottom of the unit provide clear visibility of charging and communication status, whether the plate is installed on a shelf or mounted on a wall. Future Bluetooth Connectivity Planned Bluetooth support will enable users to monitor charging status and battery information from smartphones and tablets via a future firmware update. *USB PD charger and USB Type-C cable are not included. For best performance, use a USB Type-C cable rated for 100 W or higher. The VL-PD1 must be used with a compatible USB PD charger. Input USB Type-C, up to 100W
